Lifting the sword into the rivers and lakes Chapter 73 Where to hide
The cigarette pouch pot and the hooked nose followed Wu Laoqi and others in the forest for half an hour. Wu Laoqi held the torch, carefully recalled the place where the movement was made, and finally saw the crooked neck tree.
"Two, this is where the sound came from when I was searching just now, this crooked neck tree is particularly eye-catching, I can remember it at a glance, it won't be wrong." Wu Laoqi said to the two of them firmly.
The hook nose did not answer coldly, but the cigarette pouch pot nodded at Wu Laoqi, knocked the cigarette pouch in his hand on the sole of his shoe, tied the purse containing the tobacco with a rope and the cigarette stick, inserted it in the back waist, leaned over, surrounded the crooked neck tree, and carefully looked for clues.
After some investigation, the cigarette bag pot finally found a clue under the tree, a stone, although lying quietly in the snow, inconspicuous, but after the cigarette bag pot grabbed the stone and checked, it was found that the corner of the stone was stained with a trace of blood.
Although the blood stains have dried up, in the eyes of the cigarette bag pot, there are no people around here, looking at the stone in his hand, the nose of the cigarette bag pot approached, sniffed hard, and then raised his head sharply and ran not far away.
Wu Laoqi and the others were puzzled, but they just stood in place, looking at the cigarette pouch pot left and right, but the hook nose was used to seeing his own ruler good junior brother who was proficient in tracking, and followed the cigarette pouch pot with a cold face.
Finally, the cigarette pouch pot found a place, stopped its figure, looked back and nodded to the eagle hook nose that followed, and then the eagle hook nose stretched out his hand to Wu Laoqi and the others who were pestle in the distance.
Wu Laoqi walked reluctantly, and whispered to himself as he walked: "Lao Tzu has carefully searched these places, what else is not to worry about, I want to see what you find." ”
When I got closer, I found that there was a very inconspicuous bloodstain at the root of the tree where the cigarette bag pot was checked, and the blood had turned black.
"It's... This.. It can't be animal blood. Wu Laoqi saw that the hooked nose and the cigarette pouch and pot were staring at him, his face flushed, and he wanted to quibble.
The cigarette pouch pot didn't want to talk too much with this green forest thief, and stretched out his fingers to rub the blood stains on the roots of the tree, although it was slightly blackened, but it was not completely dry. Shen Yulou is still in the territory of Xiaoloufeng, so he must not be able to go far.
Raising his head, the cigarette bag pot swept around the surrounding environment, looking at the towering small building peak, the cigarette bag pot raised his head, as if facing the people behind him, and also seemed to say to himself: "Surrounded by a heavy siege, there is a siege in front, and there are chasing soldiers in the back... As.. It's better to go where the enemy must think I dare not go again. ”
Thinking of something, the pupils of the cigarette pouch pot contracted suddenly, turned his head to look at Xiao Loufeng, and then said to the people in Hutou Village behind him: "He.. Shen Yulou fled back to Xiaolou Peak..."
——
After telling everyone, he sent Hu Leopard away, and Qi Qianjian paced in the room of the owner of the village who originally belonged to Shen Yulou, thinking about the order of the ink man, intercepting and killing Wan Jun, and summoning Qi Tianya.
These many things are congested in my heart, and the ruler is bored, but I can hear it outside the mountain village, and the voices are boiling. Pushing open the door and looking out, I saw the mountain in the distance, and the torches were bright.
The people who were about to fall asleep thought that someone was coming, and the people went to the gate of the village, and saw that the people who came to the door were the people of Hutou Village who went down the mountain to search for the whereabouts of Shen Yulou, and the leaders were the two people who were the cigarette bag pot and the hook nose.
"Division. Big brother, I and the thirteenth brother found the traces of Shen Yulou under Xiaolou Peak, in my opinion, he was seriously injured, under the search of so many people, it is impossible for him to run out of the boundary of Xiaolou Peak, there is only one possibility. The cigarette pouch pot said to the ruler of the sword.
Qi Qianjian listened to the words of the cigarette bag pot, but laughed, originally he thought that this Shen Yulou was just a green forest thief, but he didn't expect this person to have some brains. And the people behind the ruler thousand blades, the cigarette pouch pot, and the hook nose, saw their senior brother laughing, but one by one their expressions became serious, they knew that the smile of the ruler thousand blades meant that the senior brother wanted to kill.
"Search, turn Xiaoloufeng over, and find people too." The smile of the shakusenjian disappeared, and then it was replaced by a fierce look.
The people of Hutou Village knew that this person was the master who did not dare to provoke the owner of the village, and saw that he stretched out his hand fiercely in the night attack on Xiaolou Peak, and did not dare to ask more, and the minions scattered with Wu Laoqi, Zhang Da'er, Liu Laosi and others, and soon this Xiaolou Peak remembered the sound of turning over the box and the cabinet.
The entourage of the ruler thousand blades also scattered in all directions, and in a short time, this small building peak had been turned upside down, and when everyone found nothing, the cold gaze of the ruler thousand blades finally swept into the conference hall, and a trace of uneasiness flashed in his heart, and the ruler thousand blades stepped into the conference hall.
Everyone was puzzled that the hall had naturally been rummaged through several times, and even the tables and chairs had been overturned. Why did this master still go to check the council room, but after all, he was a person who was feared by the owner of his own village, and everyone had to pour into the council hall with a thousand blades.
I saw a thousand blades pacing in the council hall, his eyes constantly scanning all the objects in the council hall. Until the eyes of the ruler of the village stayed on the chair of the village master, jumped forward, until the side of the village owner's chair, the ruler of the village opened his mouth to call the cigarette pouch pot: "Usually count you to tinker with these, check it." ”
The cigarette pouch pot leaned over to check, this village master chair was unremarkable, reached out and groped under the chair for a long time, and there was no mechanism, just when he was about to return to the ruler of the thousand blades, he caught a glimpse of the chair leg of the village master chair, revealing a little depression.
With a move in his heart, the cigarette pouch pot called a few minions to move the chair away, and the single finger on the floor was dented, showing in front of everyone.
The cigarette pouch pot looked back and asked the ruler with his eyes, and got a positive answer from the ruler and the blade, the cigarette bag and the pot signaled everyone to silence, stretched out his fingers to explore the depression, touched a mechanism bulge, pressed it hard, and with a 'click', a person-wide secret passage appeared on the ground.
Wu Laoqi and the others were all dumbfounded, and everyone looked at the dark entrance of the dark passage, and no one dared to go in to check it for a while.
Of course, the ruler thousand blades would not let others go in to check, no one knew whether there were traps hidden in this secret passage, his eyes looked around, and he said to Zhang Da'er, who was sticking out his head to see the excitement: "You go to investigate, if Shen Yulou is hiding inside, I will go in and help you." ”
Zhang Da'er cried with a sad face, and begged for mercy: "Big brother, my martial arts are low, the brothers around you, which one is not a big hero with one enemy and a hundred, I... I'm this. In case here."
Before he finished speaking, he saw that the killing intent had emerged in the eyes of the thousand blades.
With a shudder, Zhang Da'er swallowed the second half of the words of shirk back into his stomach. With the last hope, looking back at his good brother, Liu Laosi and Wu Laoqi were gone.
With desperation, Zhang Da'er took the torch from the minion's hand, gritted his teeth and burrowed into the dark passage.
Qi Qianjian waited for Zhang Da'er's news in the conference hall with a calm face, and after a while, he only heard Zhang Da'er's voice in the dark passage: "There is no one in this dark passage, and it is a dead end." ”
The uneasiness in his heart gradually magnified, and he was sure that according to the calculation of the cigarette bag pot, Shen Yulou went and returned, hiding in this secret passage, and whether he and the others were talking with Hu Bao or discussing the interception and killing of Wan Jun later, it was very likely that Shen Yulou overheard.
was originally an ant-like existence in his eyes, but now he has become a confidant, and his expression has changed.
Seeing that Zhang Da'er climbed out safely in the dark passage, Qi Qianjian summoned the cigarette pouch pot and the hook nose to step forward and ordered: "That Shen Yulou, I'm afraid that I heard something that shouldn't be heard, and he ran away for his life, so it's okay." Now it looks like he's going to die, ruler letter, go down the tunnels and see if you can find something to track down. ”
"Ruler good, ruler volt." Then the shakuzen blade continued.
"Yes." Hooknose and another person respond from the entourage.
"The three of you, when Qi Liang uses tracking techniques to find out the whereabouts of Shen Yulou, catch up with this person, and be sure to bring his head back." The minions in the council hall where the killing intent in the eyes of the ruler thousand blades had been shocked did not dare to make a sound, and even Zhang Da'er, who had just crawled out of the secret passage, even suppressed the sound of panting to the minimum, for fear that he would anger this evil star and his own life would be at risk.
As soon as the three of them finished explaining to the three of them, the cigarette pouch and pot ruler letter had already crawled out of the dark passage, Eagle Hook Nose and others stepped forward to help Qi Liang out of the secret passage, and the cigarette bag and pot hugged his fist towards the ruler and said: "Big brother, this Shen Yulou must have suffered a lot of injuries, there are a lot of blood stains in it, I infer from the wet and dry situation of this blood stain, he left for only an hour." ”
"This hour.." Qi Qianjian thought about it for a while, he and the others agreed to intercept and kill Wan Jun, it was really an hour ago, he hid in the council hall, and this secret matter, he must have overheard it.
"The three of you follow the cigarette bag pot, go to chase now, although he has some martial arts, but he is seriously injured, and his feet are not fast, you still have time." The ruler and the blade headed towards the cigarette bag and the pot and the others.
"Big brother, why should we meddle in this matter, and that... That person can also be regarded as a Qiyun hero. The cigarette pouch seemed to be a little hesitant. But looking at the cannibalistic gaze of the shakuchiji, he didn't dare to continue to speak.
I had to clench my fist towards the shakuchichi blade and get up.
The ruler stared at the entrance of the dark passage with a wide mouth of darkness, as if he was mercilessly mocking the clever and confused leader of the dead.
I saw that the chest of the ruler thousand blades was rising and falling rapidly, and his face was gradually distorted, and Liu Laosi and the others in Hutou Village, who were hiding on the side, were about to step forward to ask for instructions, whether they should return to Hutou Village.
The thousand blades angrily slapped a palm towards the entrance of the dark passage, and the palm wind was fierce, whistling and skimming, knocking a group of tiger head village minions to the ground.
I only heard the sound of 'clicking', and when a minion got up, the entrance to the dark passage had been collapsed by the palm wind, and the minions of hope were dumbfounded.
"Hmph." With a palm, he turned around with his sleeves and went to the back of Yuling Village, and the other ink dead soldiers were also expressionless, silently exiting the meeting hall and going with the ruler Qianjian.
A kind of tiger head village minions looked at each other, where do they dare to say more, Zhang Da'er, Liu Laosi, Wu Laoqi and others hurriedly took everyone, crawled out of the meeting hall and looked at the direction of Hutou Village.
——
Along the way, Shen Yulou's wounds kept oozing blood, in order to hide his whereabouts, Shen Yulou had to flee for his life, so he used the branches he picked up to cover the blood stains that fell to the ground with snow.
After escaping for a long time, Shen Yulou really couldn't escape, so he could only lean against a tree and keep gasping, settling down on his knees. If you keep running away so strongly, I'm afraid that before you escape from the realm of Xiaoloufeng, you will have fainted.
At this moment, Shen Yulou only hoped that his hidden secret path would not be discovered by that group of people, otherwise with the skills of that group of people, it would not be long before he could catch up with him.
didn't have time to think about it, Shen Yulou took out a Ning Xi Pill from his body, this pill was extremely precious, and it was given to Shen Yulou by a passing merchant to thank Shen Yulou for saving his life from Hutou Village.
This elixir is said to allow martial arts practitioners to restore their internal strength in a short period of time, and is the best healing thing.
Ning Xi Dan melted in his mouth, turning into a warm current that rushed straight to the dantian, Shen Yulou, who was originally exhausted, only felt relaxed, the pill was very fast, and Shen Yulou, who was originally haggard, took the pill to breathe for only an hour, and his complexion had improved.
Spit out a breath of turbidity, Shen Yulou felt that the injury was not as heavy as before, ripped off some clothes, tore them into strips of cloth, and tied the wounds on his body tightly, Shen Yulou thought carefully, Donglai Feng could not go anymore, and now the only way to do this is to flee to Liangzhou and then think about it in the long run.
After making up his mind, without waiting, Shen Yulou walked in the direction of Liangzhou.
